    Checkout support is one of the finest in terms of quick replies, and elaborative responses.

    Chose Checkout.com
    We are not using only checkout.com; however, while choosing the 2nd provider, we made a choice for Checkout.com because: a. all needed basic features available, b. good pricing, c. developing company, d. teams who ask what the merchant wants and, after that - implement what the …

    Chose Checkout.com
    Most of the above payment gateways perform well in specific markets but may perform poorer elsewhere. Checkout.com has good acceptance rate in overall most of the countries, allowing us to rely on them on capturing transactions that other payment processors would struggle with.

    Checkout offers great service and expertise and stands above its peers in full-service offering, integration, and ongoing support. However, Checkout is not suitable in a scenario where Paysend is fully licensed and a direct acquirer of the scheme. In this scenario, Paysend can perform the full value chain in-house.

    Cons
    PayPal
    • Not a very good subscription management platform for a Saas business, but they make up for it on the API with others that are
    • Doesn't have a lot of additional features, but that's what you'd expect out of a payment processor
    • Very expensive per transaction, but the reality is that any processor who helps early stage companies accept online payments are expensive.

    There's a huge cost in migrating payment providers, and we're very happy with Braintree so far.

    Usability
    PayPal
    As a product, functionality has been fine for us. In our experience, some issues during On Boarding but because we had a dedicated Account Manager assigned to us, these issues were dealt with. Now we are a customer, it feels like they have stopped caring about us or aren't interested in working with us to resolve any issues we have.

    • Checkout has allowed us to enter markets worldwide without having to find a new provider—the same seamless experience across Europe, the UK, and Australia.
    • The efficient chargeback setup on the portal allows us to monitor and respond to chargebacks promptly and efficiently, and help is always available for cases that are a little less black or white.
